I think this is plugin territory. In my forum I have several threads where only admins can post updates for users. Not really a discussion topic, more of a change log or mini blog. If posts were to start merging the updates would get tangled.

Just one use case, but I'd prefer the core code not to automatically join double posts....or at least make it an option.

Ability to collapse trees in ACP preview for Categories.

This has been available in core for a while now. You can set it on the category page.

This worked fine in 0.6.x but since I updated to 0.7.x it does not work anymore? Is it theme related or a bug?

@nhl-pl good 😉

@meetdilip
How would you do that? Show me an example please.

One reason not to it: You get dependent on third party services. Don't be evil 😉

Looks like its only in 0.6.x

@baris Yes I use Redis for NodeBB, so it gets applied to the integrated socket.io. But also it seems like I misinterpreted the problem for some reasons...

Several features are not working with clustering, for example the chat:
I can open it, but...

As you see in this screenshot, sometimes I get the messages and sometimes I don't.

Or the plugins, I can initiate installation and nothing happens but the image changes. Installation through the ACP just don't work with clustering. I haven't tested it yet together with websockets, as I'm a cloudflare customer and haven't got access to the websockets right now.

All good points, tagging @baris to take a look

@ffmad You can modify the HTML by customising the template in the theme. The theme files are located in node_modules/nodebb-theme-vanilla and node_modules/nodebb-theme-lavender

Best bet would be to fork the lavender theme and make your changes in a new theme for your site 🙂

that's what i've done ^^

what i said is that it lacks the 'topic title' in lavender theme

People are lazy, anything you can make that will simplify their lives is winner. This one feature certainly helped Social networks grow over traditionnal forums. Look kids, you can post stuff but you don't have to type anything, how cool is that? 😜

You're probably looking for the "fork" functionality there 🙂

Like this?

Before we can do this, we have to actually implement topic title searching properly 😄

Bingo.

Hi, I'm the s9e\TextFormatter author. I have a couple of Google Alerts so unlike Beetlejuice you only have to save my name once for me to appear. 🙂

s9e\TextFormatter is a PHP library with a JavaScript port. It uses plugins to let the user pick and choose what kind of features they want. The JavaScript version is generated by the PHP library, which means you'd need PHP as part of your build process. Once the JavaScript is generated it can be redistributed easily so I guess you could bundle a preconfigured/pregenerated version. You can see a couple of live demos there: BBCodes+stuff demo, Fatdown (Markdownish+stuff) demo.

The client-side rendering is performed with XSLTProcessor. Adding an MSXML fallback for IE is easy. Rendering in pure JS is technically feasible (there's already a pure PHP renderer) but I never got to it because I have no use for it. The library could be used as the base for a true WYSIWYG editor (where what you see is actually what you get because there's no conversion from HTML back to Markdown or things like that) but that would be a big project. I'd be willing to discuss any type of collaboration if someone's interested.

@julian @psychobunny anyone? 🙂

How about making it an option in the ACP? @psychobunny

I know it is blasphemy to reply/reopen an old thread, but I think I have some sort of workaround for this. Say that per-category header warning message is 1) not going to be as native functionality, or 2) still waiting for plugin for that, I think a pinned thread atop all threads would suffice.

Sounds like its doable. Apparently you can embed Hackpad on your site using their code:

<script src=“https://hackpad.com/<string>.js”></script><noscript><div>View <a href=“https://hackpad.com/<string>.js”>To-Do</a></div></noscript>

So all you'd have to do is create a static page maybe and paste the above in a template
